European Ancestry | 0.17 (0.05)*** | 0.10 (0.04)** | 0.27 (0.05)a |

Note: Table presenting the univariate SNP-heritability of AD factors for EAs and AAs using subsets of SNPs (Gene set A comprises SNPs that survive within-ancestral-group quality control procedures [QC] across both populations; Gene set B includes SNPs that differentially survive QC across ancestral groups; Total SNP-heritability reflects the genomewide effects of Gene sets A & B within each ancestral group). Notations:
p < 0.05,
p < 0.01,
p < 0.001;
significance test not available for total heritability in model, as the likelihood ratio test is conducted only on the specific variance components within the model.
